Coercionist, lover, prisoner, more?
Alexander Bartholomew Crimson only ever wanted a few things out of life. a good job, friends, and a man to love, no an alien man to love. He got the first even before he was done with school, the second not long after he started his new job on a new planet.
The third he'd given up on by the time he met Jack, a tall, handsome, funny, loving, furry Samalian. For a few weeks, Alex didn't think life could be any better. But then Jack was taken from him. Worse, the company he worked for accused him of being in league with the alien who attacked them, the same alien who took Jack.
Now, Alex only wants one thing; to get him back.
Unaware of the choices he will have to make, or the dangers he will face, he embarks on a trek he hopes will take him to the monster who took Jack from him, for a chance to save his love. But with each danger he faces comes the realization that who he is might not be enough to reach his goal.
With each choice he makes, Alex changes.
What cost is he willing to pay to get to the man he loves? Will there be enough of himself left when he gets there to be recognizable?

TWISTED FATE (Twisted Path Book 1)
He was born to rule. She was forged in fire. But falling in love might be their undoing. I know how to survive. I've been doing it since the day my mother taught me to hide in closets and wait for the monsters to pass. Trusting people? Loving them? That's how you get broken. So when Shane Montgomery-Mr. Golden Boy with his perfect smile and world of privilege-offered to help me, I didn't believe him. Why would someone like him care about someone like me? I'm barely holding my life together-working double shifts, sleeping too little, chasing a future no one thinks I deserve. But Shane is relentless. Not just with tutoring or grades, but with me. With seeing me. Touching the parts of me I've kept buried because needing someone is dangerous. And wanting him? That's a cliff I can't afford to fall from. Still... I'm slipping. Because when he looks at me like I'm his everything-like I'm the only thing he needs, like our love is fated, written into the very fabric of the universe-I almost believe him. And if I allow myself to fall-really fall-it won't just be into his arms. It'll be straight into the wreckage of everything I've fought so hard to survive. In the first installment of the Twisted Path Series, opposites collide, secrets unravel, and two star-crossed lovers cling to each other in a world determined to tear them apart.Complete

And what will happen when he finds out? *** I never heard him make a sound, so his voice makes me jump as I hear him say "I can smell him on you" from right behind me. I turn around and dread fills me as I look into his dark eyes. They're glowing from the light from the fridge. I stumble over my thoughts but manage to squeak out "I thought you were out on a mission for your Alpha?" "I finished, and now I'm back." His eyes boring a hole through my head. "And I can tell that you've been slutting it up" he says with a look that makes me tremble. I start to shake my head, to try and persuade him that I haven't been doing anything wrong, but he forcefully grabs my jaw and stops me from shaking it. "You really shouldn't lie to me Adelaide, now I'm just going to have to teach you a lesson" he spits out at me. *** This isn't you typical story about werewolves, but I love the idea of mates, so follow these young adults on their journey with a supernatural twist.Complete

All I ask is that you take time to read the entire thing before you make a judgment. Thank you and enjoy the story! Cassandra hasn't known feeling since 15. She is full of hatred and betrayal.

Lonely Lost & Found
DISCLAIMER: In almost ALL chapters- Self Harm, suicidal thoughts, mental illness, smut...If any of this bothers you, be careful reading it please. Alex, a lonely 17 year old with a heart problem and a lot of anxiety is hated by nearly everyone in his school. It was stupid, he knew that, but his anxiety and depression told him otherwise. Told him that he deserved to be hated, truly. He still longed for a friend though. He'd heard a rumor about some stupid party that any other time, he wouldn't be interested in. However, for the sake of at least attempting to find a friend, he went, and he didn't regret going when a nice black and blonde haired boy struck up a conversation, and life was a crazy roller coaster ever since with the future completely unknown. A/N; I don't own Jack or Alex or All Time Low or anyone affiliated, I just like to write stories and use their faces and bits of their personalities in these writings. This is entirely fictional and my own writing. I also don't know exactly where I'm taking this story, but I'll be thinking of new ideas as they come to me and writing them out. PLEASE send me suggestions and feedback!Complete

Kylie survived the brutal destruction of her pack only to discover her cold alpha mate was the one responsible for the brutal slaughter of her family and pack mates. She can't forgive and she won't forget. Kylie cooperates with his demands while she searches for a way to free the remaining survivors and herself. Success teaches her just how complicated mate bonds can be and gives her the chance to choose her own fate. "Screw the mate bond. If I went for his throat while he was driving in human form, I might be able to kill him right now, and if I didn't succeed, the resulting accident might. I leapt for the front seat, powerful jaw ready to rip out his throat as he had ripped out my family's to take my revenge. Without even taking his left hand off the wheel, he blocked me by getting his right forearm between my jaws. I bit down as hard as I could, wishing to break his bones and sever the limb. Worse, I felt the tingles of our first contact where violence had connected us. The iron of his blood mingled with the other scents around me." (This is a dark story, but not the stereotypical one where she falls in love with her captor. This is the story of escape from a toxic relationship and finding healthy love.)

You scarred my body now I'm going to return the favor. Every time you'll look in the mirror you'll remember me Jack like I do you." Gillian62003*Complete
Twisted Love
[Started Writing : 3rd August, 2023] "For fuck sake, leave me alone." I screamed out as tears commenced gathering in my eyes. He said nothing. He just sat there watching me lose my temper. "Answer me." I growled shooting daggers on his way with my eyes. "Be my girlfriend. You will get everything you lost." "I don't want to be." "You have no choice." Anastasia wants nothing but to get out of the hell hole called 'her life'. They say study hard and then you can earn money and have a good life.

He wants nothing but revenge from a certain someone who might have scratched his ego a little bit. And at that time Anastasia was the best option for him.
